Abstract
Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) is an autoimmune disease with destruction of hematopoietic cells by activated T lymphocytes. However, the precise mechanism of cytotoxicity T cells recognizing and attacking CD34+ cells remains unclear. Here, we investigated the proteome of CD34+ cells in SAA patients to further explore the pathogenesis of SAA. CD34+ cells from 29 SAA patients and 20 health controls were isolated by magnetic activated cell sorting. The protein of CD34+ cells were examined by iTRAQ labeling combination of multidimensional liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry. A total of 156 differential expression proteins in CD34+ cells were identified. Compared with health controls, 53 proteins were up-regulated and 103 proteins were down-regulated in SAA patients. Specifically, abnormal expression of proteasome subunits, histone variants, dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide–protein glycosyltransferase subunit (DAD1) and ATPase inhibitor, mitochondrial isoform 1 precursor(IF1) may relate to the hyperfunction of immune responses and excessive apoptosis of SAA CD34+ cells.
